To Whom It May Concern,
As Brooke Bogardus’ English professor in the past, I have a working knowledge in recommending her without reservation as a likely candidate for a position of responsibility within your organization. Over the time I have known Brooke, I have observed her work ethic and the quality of her workmanship. Brooke is diligent, patient, and loyal. As a frequent contributor to class discussions and group dynamics, she is also a favorite among her peers.
In addition, Brooke has regularly demonstrated her ability to handle pressure, manage multiple assignments, and interact effectively with a variety of students from varied backgrounds (in classes we have had students from India, Brazil, and Mexico; and, students with OCD, Autism, PTSD, and depression/anxiety).
Brooke has the unique ability to simplify complex topics through questions and explanations. Those that work with her on projects feel both comfortable and confident with her style of inclusivity and building others. Some of Brooke’s particular strengths are her attention to detail, her ability to work unsupervised, her creativity, and her desire for learning which she then passes on to others.
As a long-standing educator and adjunct faculty member of Brigham Young University-Idaho’s academic program, I am familiar with the requirements of an exceptional student and I am confident that Brooke Bogardus will be an asset to your organization and is well-deserving of your consideration.
Please feel free to contact me at any time.
Sincerely,
Paulette E. Kirkham
